  1. I at a loss for words which seems to work with the word presented to me. Though through typing out my thoughts on this dilemma, I already through my second sentence now.

    But now I’m at a loss for words and still stalling because I don’t know what to write.

  2. A car stalls and stutters, as do our minds at times. Either too many thoughts or not enough and the brain engine shudders, unable to process information normally. . . Geez, this is a hard word today, couldn’t we have had “puppies” or “kittens”? Not fair, could have written loads about them.

  3. I was stalling. I didn’t want Jamie to know that I wasn’t going to go to Vancouver with him. He asked me. I looked down at my shoes. He asked me again. I said, “Hey you know what colour I really like? Blue. I really like blue.”
    “Blue like the Vancouver seascape, eh?” – He was always doing that, reading into the random crap that I say.
    I said, “Uh, yeah, like the Vancouver seascape. let’s go already” and then we got in the van and started driving. 20 minutes into the trip I already felt like kicking myself.

  4. Can’t think. Have to stall. It hurts I don’t like being patient I feel bad making someone wait. That’s really a lie of course who would feel bad for such a thing. I can keep going.

  5. …..

    One. Tick. Two. Tock. Three. Tick, tick, tick.

    Hmm…. Time ticks by slowly. One moment then two. Another and another.

    Stalling. Waiting. Ticking. Tocking.

    I wait for you. I stall for you.

  6. I wait for myself. I shouldn’t, I should forbid the past and just, go. Uncertainties ensue everywhere I go, everything I do. And they shouldn’t.

  7. brain stopped-jammed-can’t think
    car exhaust pouring out into stifled air (huff huff)
    warm grunt
    cogs stuck on a particular loop of time,
    frozen, stand still, we won’t grow old this way

  8. Right now, I’m stalling as much as I possibly can. I’ve made two trips to the downstairs bathroom stall, which is two more than theount of sentences of my Shakespeare paper – one that is supposed to be 5-6 pages and is due tomorrow – that I have written at this point. I realize that I’m not really supposed to use the word in the blurb that I’m writing here, but I want to motivate myself to start working.

  10. Don’t we stall every day about something? Stalling is a way of life, a way to get by, a way to buy time
    and a way to put off anything and everything.

  12. If I stall, I stop, so I’ll keep on going. Never stall, it’s better to just keep on, life goes on all around us, and will continue when we’re gone. So don’t stall, be all, be a part of it! That s all!

  16. The colourful canvas flapped in the wind, the marketsellers excitedly calling out the price and quality of their wares. It was a new world to me, one stall next to the other, each offering exquisite delicacies of lands unknown.

  22. Prancing. Sharp-hoofed devils. Forcing their hair-flickered noses against her lower back and demanding all the things an equine should never demand. Impatient, she slammed the door to the stall.

  23. The stall was in front of me, the tiny beads glistening in the morning sun seemed to call me, but where was the one I was looking for? I had seen it last week. Ah there, the tiny angel. When the shop keeper turned her back, busy with another customers change, I quickly snapped it up and shoved it in my pocket. “excuse me…” i heard as I turned around, a policeman in front of me.

  24. Bathroom stalls are so cool if you really think about it. They see so many different faces every day. I think it would be an exciting thing to be, minus the whole smelly part.

  29. I dont think i could stall writing this for another minute. Perhaps I should write about horse stalls. The smell, and how it makes me sneeze but when I rode horses would continue to do so anyways. Ha. No. No. That doesn’t work. Hows I wrote all this crap just to stall the paragraph and see how this works. Yes. Yes. That works just fine. Though now I wonder

  31. To stall is to be late on purpose. Also these can make nice homes for horses, its funny how many words in the english language have the same spelling but completely different definitions.

  34. Things suddenly got very very quiet.
    Emma turned the key.
    Nothing.
    She jerked the wheel and panicked.
    It wasn’t doing anything.
    There was a line of cars stretching down the curving canyon,and she couldn’t turn.
    A big rig honked.
    She crashed.
    And then it all when white.

  35. She remembered the first time she had stalled on the biggest hill in Seattle, it was at night in the rain, naturally. Murphy’s Law had never exactly been her friend. Tonight was different, however. It was a snowy night in Atlanta. The sense of urgency was the same.

  36. I went to the bathroom in my residence hall. I knew my friend was taking a shower. I wanted to freak her out. So I coughed and screamed in the stall next to her. Then I left. I haven’t seen her since. But I know she was creeped out by it, hahaha. I love that girl. Her name is Sara. She is Turkish. And she is the sweetest girl you’d ever meet.
